  • Feature removal

    Like others have mentioned , why remove features? The app has a small footprint so that cannot be why. Items like the timer are useful in a smoke/cook for reminding when to spritz/mop, wrap brisket, change temp etc

    Also, more pre-alarm temps would be nice. Actually, a free-form field for whatever temp would be better than a pick list. Development wise this is easy , so please consider.

  • Apple watch app?

    Like the product so far. Wish there was watch functionality so as to not have to open app on phone constantly. Especially if just need quick glance at temp on the go.
  • The last update

    Evert since the last update my temp spike disconnects after a few minutes. I’m constantly worried I won’t get an alarm at the desired temp. It use to be flawless until the last update.

    Sorry to hear this, please make sure you have the latest version of the app up to date. If you are still experiencing issues, please contact me at mark@itronicsglobal.com.
  • Make it go landscape mode pls

    I love the thermometer and the app. My only request is to have it be able to rotate

  • Can’t add new profiles

    App is broken. You can click + to add new profiles and enter them and press Save, but they never show up in the list. So you have to keep editing existing profiles to set different temperatures.

  • Missing functionality

    I don’t know if it’s just a lack of experience cooking that creates a very narrow approach to companion applications for these thermometers, but there are some glaring issues that could easily be fixed.

    First, why in the world do I have to select a meat type just to choose a target temperature? OK, fine. I can either create my own or use “No Profile.” Regardless, it’s ridiculous that I have to go BACK into the settings THREE LAYERS DEEP into the selected cook just to change the target temperature. Make it simple! Let me tap a button on the main screen, adjust the temperature up and down with a plus and minus, and that’s it! Don’t make me go back into a menu setting just to change it. Argh.

    Second, why do I have the ability to set a low and high alarm for the ambient temperature, but I don’t have the ability to set the same low and high on the internal temperature? I know it seems silly to some, but when I am resting something like a brisket, pork shoulder, etc., knowing that it is not dipping below a certain temperature is important to me! It’s such a simple concept. This app could be so much better improvements. Also, to some other reviewer’s points, signal strength on Bluetooth connectivity is super helpful! Hopefully the developers are listening!

  • Nice app with room to grow!

    Pros: Easy to use, has important info at a glance, reliable, yet to experience much delay between the app and probe,
    ability to amend the meat settings is nice.

    Cons: Cool graph only updates when you open the app, so rather than an actual visuals of the cook, it’s just leaps in temps. I assume this is just a bug as I’m sure I’ve seen it working in reviews, etc.

    The meat selection UI is very basic and lacks popular cuts. It would be good to see something a little closer to what Meater has.

  • No Apple Watch companion app?

    New user , the specs are great and it works great so far but it’s disappointing there is no Apple Watch connection, it would be so handy to see temps on my watch then having to find my phone, seems weird there not being one. So many app that suit this kind of handy monitoring have Apple Watch companion apps .

    It is on the way!
  • Needs a widget to add to home screen

    I haven’t used it long but it comes really handy. The only thing I wish you could do is make it where you can add a widget to monitor easier instead of opening app
